Mechel Informs ADR Holders Of Possible Dr Conversion To Local Mechel Shares

17.08.2022 | 16:00 Uhr | DGAP
Moscow, August 17, 2022 - Mechel PAO (MOEX: MTLR, NYSE: MTL), one of the leading Russian mining and metals companies, informs ADR holders of the possibility of an automatic or forced conversion of depositary receipts into local shares.

In accordance with Federal Law No. 114-FZ of April 16, 2022, Mechel has submitted to the Depository of Raiffeisenbank AO a notification of the actions aimed at an automatic conversion of American depositary receipts (ADRs) into common and preferred shares of Mechel PAO. The procedure and terms of this automatic conversion are established by the decision of the Board of Directors of the Bank of Russia dated July 22, 2022, "Regarding the procedure of automatic conversion of depositary receipts issued by foreign issuers, establishing rights to Russian-emitted shares, into Russian-emitted shares".

The automatic conversion is available for depositary receipts, the rights to which are recorded in Russian depositories, and does not require ADR holders to perform any additional actions.

The Bank of Russia also outlines a mechanism of forced conversion for the ADRs, the rights to which are recorded in foreign depositories, where the holders of such ADRs may not convert those ADRs into shares due to unfriendly actions by foreign states or organizations or limitations introduced by foreign states or organizations against such ADR holders or depositaries.

Holders of Mechel ADR who wish to exercise the right of forced conversion may apply to the Depository of Raiffeisenbank AO by October 11, 2022. Within 10 workdays following this deadline for accepting applications, and in the absence of reasonable doubt regarding information provided by ADR holders, Raiffeisenbank AO will open a securities account for the applicant and transfer a corresponding amount of Mechel PAO's shares from the depositary programs' securities account. The depositary is required to refuse forced conversion to all holders if they apply for more shares of a Russian issuer than the depositary programs' securities account has. Mechel PAO recommends holders to contact the Depository of Raiffeisenbank AO to clarify the procedure and details of such forced conversion at adr.settlement@raiffeisen.ru
